On recess days it is especially important that our students come to school dressed warmly. Except in cases of extreme weather, we make every effort to get the children outside for their playtime. Fresh air is good for them and in order to help your child enjoy this time, they should be dressed appropriately. Hats are especially important—a warm head helps the rest of the body stay warm.

Please make sure your child has gloves or mittens and label all clothing with your child’s name and class.

It might be a good idea for children to have a change of clothing in their cubbies or lockers in case they become wet from snow, water, or mud. An extra pair of socks is always appreciated when you have wet, cold feet.

Our rules for snow are very simple. To have full use of the whole playground, students must have boots, snow pants or an extra pair of pants over their clothes. If students do not have boots, they have to remain on the blacktop area of the playground. This policy will be strictly enforced for the health and comfort of our students
